Nephew Dragged 40m by Lorry Driver Texting Behind Wheel!

Horror Crash Caught Thanks to Quick-Thinking Motorist

Yesterday, a shocking incident unfolded when a nephew was slammed off his bike by a lorry driver distracted by his phone. The lad was dragged an incredible 40 metres, clinging to the front bumper before a sharp-eyed driver slammed on the brakes and blocked the lorry, forcing it to stop.

Lorry Driver Arrested on the Spot for Phone Use

The driver claimed he didn’t even realise what had happened. He was promptly arrested at the scene for using his phone while driving. The message here is crystal clear: DO NOT USE YOUR PHONE BEHIND THE WHEEL!

Teen Survives but Faces Surgery

Miraculously, the nephew is still alive, though “ok-ish.” He’s due for surgery today. Details are thin for now but this close call should serve as a warning to all drivers: your phone can wait, but lives can’t.
